Before receiving Malawi this Friday, Senegal kept a curious eye on the meeting with Burkina Faso, its main competitor in the race for first place in Group L.
The third day of the qualifiers for the African Cup of Nations (CAN) Morocco 2025 this Thursday. On this occasion, the Stallions hosted the Swallows of Burundi at the Stade Olympique Alassane Ouattara in Ebimpé with the desire to temporarily overtake the Lions, whom they had held in check on their lawn last September.

Mission accomplished, without a mistake for Brama Traoré’s men, who won 4-1. The coach was able to rely on the strong returns of the Burkina captains such as Bertrand Traoré (decisive passer), Issoufou Dayo (scorer). But also on a Dango Ouattara of the great evenings. The Bournemouth striker scored a double, after allowing his team to come back to the score after half an hour of play.
A very good operation for Burkina Faso which is now three steps ahead of Senegal, which must reconnect with its public against Malawi after two poor performances at home, and temporarily takes the lead in Group L.
